james_laughton Posted December 26, 2005 Share Posted December 26, 2005 Ive been given one of these for christmas 2nd hand and am I right in thinking it has no bulb setting? The manual given with it is for the ETR Si which states it has a bulb feature. Might have to take it back if not as its what I use 70% of the time. Thanx for any help or advice. Jim.

Uncle Goose Posted December 26, 2005 Share Posted December 26, 2005 If it's an ETRSi than turn the shutterspeedknob completely beyond 8sec (marked in orange) and there you se B in orange. That's bulb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richard baznik Posted December 26, 2005 Share Posted December 26, 2005 Jim: I have a Bronica GS-1 system, but all Bronica mnodels are basically similar, so I'll try to respond. There is no Bulb setting on any of the Bronica SLR lenses as far as I know, but rather a "T" setting (as in "time") that is operated via a slide switch on the barrel of the lens. Pull out the set screw that holds the switch in the "A" (as in "auto") position and slide it to "T." Then release the shutter as usual. The shutter will remain open until you slide the switch back to the "A" position. Not quite a Bulb capability, but it allows long exposures without drawing on the battery. Hope this helps.

Uncle Goose Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 There are indeed no bulb settings on the lenses but there is on the ETRSi body, just like I explained in my previous post here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ole_tjugen Posted December 29, 2005 Share Posted December 29, 2005 The ETRS camera has no bulb setting, but it's on the lenses as described above. It works just fine on my ETRS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
